Tape-Op is an 8hp, 100% Analog Tube & Tape Distortion with an integrated Baxandall Equalizer that can be routed before or after the distortion effect. While it is analog, there are no tubes or tape behind the panel - here SSF has designed a discrete op-amp with class-A output stage with multi-diode ladder to emulate the characteristics of vacuum tubes and analog tape saturation. Additional features include a final stage Zener hard limit switch for additional distortion and headroom limiting, a built in Voltage Controlled Amplifier with TRIM and TAPE BIAS controls that together with the EQ and SATURATION; can provide a huge variety of colorful saturated tones and compression effects.
Please note: Tape-Op Distortion is a limited release and will be available for a limited time, only.
